What are your favourite foreign movies? I think the best one's i have seen are definately Amelie (probably one of my favourite movies of all time!), Pans Labryinth (spellings probably wrong!) - just the creature with the eyes in the hands was enough to make it a great film!! Also Goodbye Lenin & The Edukators were thoroughly enjoyable. Not really a foreign movie but i would highly recommend Everything is Illuminated - also probably in my top 5 favourite movies!
Hollywood has come up with a few.
But if it is foreign language films that you are looking for, I would definitely go for 'The Wages of Fear' (Le Salaire de la peur) by Yves Montand,1953.
Most things by Pedro Almodovar aren't bad either.
